Morgan Spector: George Russell

Quotes 

• Gladys Russell : I suppose you bought him off. And if he took it, he wasn't worthy of me. That's what Mother will say.

  George Russell : Don't be too hard on the boy. I made it tough for him to refuse.

  Gladys Russell : I just wish I knew the reason.

  George Russell : Because your mother believes that you have more to come than marriage to a banker in Manhattan.

  Gladys Russell : What's wrong with that?

  George Russell : Nothing. It's not special.

  Gladys Russell : Father, I'm not special. Why can't she see it? I'm ordinary. I'm just an ordinary person who wants an ordinary life.

  George Russell : No, my darling. You are not in the least ordinary. On that point, your mother and I are as one.

• George Russell : Well, if you're asking, I think the fact that five men are dead, and a member of my staff has blood on his hands, is a little more important than whether or not the great Ward McAllister comes here for luncheon.
